With a 20 mm bore and 30 mm stroke, KM/8021/M/30 delivers compact, high-force actuation suited to small-parts handling and precise positioning on pick-and-place lines. The G1/8 port size simplifies integration with standard industrial pneumatic plumbing, reducing custom fittings and installation time while enabling reliable leak-free performance. A magnetic piston provides straightforward position sensing, enabling clean feedback for PLCs and safety interlocks. Adjustable cushioning controls impact and vibration, extending cylinder life in high-cycle environments and reducing maintenance costs. The stainless steel barrel and corrosion-resistant piston rod deliver CIP washdown compatibility, making it ideal for food-grade environments. Operating range from -10 to 80 °C and 1 to 10 bar supports diverse climates and processes. Nose mounting nut and piston rod locknut are standard, and ISO 6432 compatibility ensures easy interchangeability with existing actuators. This combination improves uptime and reduces total cost of ownership in automated lines.

FAQs
KM/8021/M/30 uses a G1/8 port and ISO 6432 mounting patterns, with a nose mounting nut and piston rod locknut provided as standard. This combination supports quick, reliable installation on standard automation frames and ensures interchangeability with other ISO 6432 cylinders, minimizing retrofit effort.
Key specs include 20 mm bore, 30 mm stroke, double-acting operation, adjustable cushioning, magnetic piston, and a theoretical force of 188 N. The cylinder operates at 1–10 bar and is rated for -10 to 80 °C, with a G1/8 port and ISO 6432 standardization for easy integration.
Yes. The cylinder uses 304-grade stainless steel and offers high corrosion resistance, making it well-suited for washdown and CIP environments common in food processing and packaging lines. Its food-grade compatibility is reinforced by its stainless construction and simple cleaning capabilities.
Adjustable cushioning reduces impact at end-of-stroke, minimizes vibration, and extends life in high-cycle applications. This translates to lower maintenance costs, fewer premature part replacements, and smoother, quieter operation in packaging, assembly, and transfer tasks.
